I attended the G.M. Motorama shows back in the early 50's while attending the Art Center School of Design on a FOMOCO Scholarship. The paint jobs on the cars were all perfect even the stock production model cars on display in the lobby. I asked one of the officials about the paint and he said they were special hand done paint jobs and were too expensive to put out on the street. The shows were held at the Los Angeles Armory right next to the U.S.C. campus. That Olds was there. They also had a four passenger corvette loooking sedan with front-hung doors in front and suicide doors in the rear. There was no centerpost and the doors clicked together much like the pickup trucks with the short door in back and a regular door hung in front. We got lots of ideas for our designs at those shows.
